Hello.
I am an older student returning to school and a research trainee at a science lab. I am conducting an experiment where I have to program a small light to go on and off at random intervals in the span of 1 hour. I have absolutely no coding experience and very limited technical knowledge. So I have the following elementary questions about Python before I download it:
1) Does Python have a physical page where I would type my code into? For example, if I need to type a research paper, I would open Word and physically type letters into a page on Word.
2) Are there sample scripts I can use as a template for programming lights to go on and off?
3) Can you recommend Python compatible building materials - I have seen information about using arduino and Raspberry Pi boards, and LED bulbs?
Thanks.
